The starting point for the design of this house was to fit a shape on a plot with a rather difficult trapezoidal contour, with a not very beneficial location in relation to the sides of the world - the entrance to the plot is located on the south side. One of the instructions from our investors was their dream of having an outdoor swimming pool, which is to be bathed in sunlight for most of the day to naturally heat the water. It was no easy task to simultaneously provide the investors with privacy and comfort while relaxing on the terrace and by the pool.

Designing a house in the Owl Mountains was a big adventure for us. We ourselves have been lovers of mountain hiking and skiing for as long as we can remember, and it is the mountains that are our first thought when we think "vacation". That is why the issues of problems to be faced by the building and its user in a mountain climate were not foreign to us.  TRZY.BE ARCHITEKCI Our job was to design a building that is primarily intended to become a place for weekend or holiday recreation for the whole family. The investors' children are themselves already adults starting their own families. The house was also to be designed in such a way that it could serve as a permanent home in the future, when the Investors decide it is time to e... More

The house is located on a plot with a steep slope that descends towards the southeast facing the Portitxol bay in Jávea. A privileged enclave of great beauty delimited to the north by the Portitxol island and to the south by the viewpoint of Punta del Cap Negre. The project is based on adapting to the geometry of the plot and elevating the day area including the terrace and the pool at the same upper level. Diego Opazo Diego Opazo Diego Opazo In this way, the south orientation is taken advantage of, which coincides with the best views towards the Mediterranean Sea. The volumetry of the project responds to the orientation, geometry, and slope of the plot. The rugged topography means that what initially seems like a dis... More

Buildings of varying heights gradually rise from the river to the city, combining dense natural materials such as brick and stone with smooth glass and metal, emphasizing the continuity and coexistence of urban and natural environments. Vis-oN studio Vis-oN studio Vis-oN studio Vis-oN studio In the low structures of Cliff5, more natural handmade brick is used, mid-rise buildings are predominantly clad in metal, and tall towers are faced with a combination of metal and glass.

Text by David Kasparek The land we live on is a non-replicable commodity. In many cities and communities, space for housing is becoming scarce. This is because, despite the cor- rect statement that our cities are largely built, i.e. on average in Germany there is enough living and wor- king space available, this existing space is often not in the right place. Especially in economically prospering settlements, living space is needed. Due to the local economic system, the available land is subject to constant speculation and the associated price driving. Since 1962, the Federal Statistical Office has been recording the development of building land prices in this country: by 2017, there was an increase of 2,308 percent. Land prices are gettin... More

Casa da Lagoa is a weekend residence for a family who lives in the capital and found this nautical condominium a refuge in the middle of nature. Roberta Gewehr Roberta Gewehr One of the main guidelines of the project was to create as many openings to the front of the land as possible to allow sunrise and incredible views of Lagoa da Pinguela. As a result, the plan is organized so that the social area faces the front, as the back area is narrower due to the trapezoidal shape of the land. Therefore, the ground floor organizes the social area (kitchen, living room, dining room, barbecue, toilet and patio) and the upper floor organizes the intimate area (suites and private living room).
